God is good!

“The Lord is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust in Him.” (Nahum 1:7)

Our God is good, kind and merciful; compassionate and willing to bless His people and fill them with joy and peace. It is easy to acknowledge and praise God when things are good, but when we face difficulties, it can be quite challenging. However, it is at times like this that we should hold on to this attribute of God, believe and affirm His goodness with expectations that He will bring us through it in such a way that His name is glorified and it turns out best for us.

ACTION: Believe and affirm the goodness of God in all circumstances.

PRAYER: Father Lord, we hold onto Your unchanging word of your goodness, trusting that even though “many are the afflictions of the righteous, You, the Lord, delivers us out of them all.” (Psalm 34:19)
